Thanks, guys!
We had that wind last week. You guys can keep it, or pass it on to England, or something. We don't want it back. We lost power for a couple of hours, and there are trees down all over.
Slap my hand now!

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Our wings are not tired.
My sister in upstate NY was saying they lost power all night. The Syracuse airport was even closed. This thing covers a wide area.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I was up at 5 this morning with the baby, and the wind was pretty scary (moreso for our apartment since we're on the top floor of the tallest building on this block). We didn't lose power, though.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Am I being unfair in finding the following annoying?
Friend drops by unexpectedly. I say "I was just about to have lunch, would you like to join me?"
"Oh no, " friend says. And stays and chats for two hours, turning down invitations to join me for lunch throughout.
Does it not seem like the friend should have either accepted the one of the lunch invitations or cut the visit short?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Your annoyance is justified.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I would just sit down and start eating. But yeah, totally missing the point.

I am so erin. If the friend was too obtuse to add, "No thank you, but you go ahead," I'd have prepped and eaten in front of her/him.

Compassionately intolerant
I ended a relationship with an ex over this very issue. We had become friends but he tended to camp out in my house for unreasonable lengths of time.
In the end, after repeated requests that he respect my time, I kicked him to the curb.
He said _I_ was being selfish.
Yeah. Not sorry.

Oh how I am missing the link, but for a cable. I totally have a picture of flaming cheese that was a small part of the many yummy delights enjoyed with Vortex, Dana, and Toddson. But I have no evidence.
Happy to report that we made it back to the hotel with no Metro confusion. I am in vacation mode. Ready to explore the sights to be seen tomorrow. See me, I am tourist.

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

I have moved to the second stage of the interview process for a job as a dispatcher for my local emergency services and am kind of wondering what to expect. Would you mind if I sent you a few questions by e-mail?
